A NASA propulsive-lift technology program for short takeoff aircraft is discussed. In the propulsive-lift program, turbofan engine power is used to augment the lift of essentially conventional wings. Potentially important applications of the propulsive lift developments for various aircraft operating conditions are reported. It is stated that the objective of the program is to provide technical information on the design, development, operation, and regulation of propulsive-lift aircraft.
